the Was. of Jimmy McVonson - act one; division five: hUnting & f;shing p1

uncle seth said he remembered me

i didn’t remember him

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvCqqPm9dFt

he wore camouflage pants

he had a scruffy moustache

and rough sideburns

he would cough every time he laughed

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwF0KNUVRy

he hugged pops when we arrived

and shook gail’s hand

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrigo2z6aId

then he shook my hand

firmly

and ruffled the hair on the top of my head

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKL35LrhY1

“nice to see you, jim” he grinned

showing less teeth than i expected

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIRuS5Mozj

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjo7uEwZtj

we settled down

and put our luggage in the rooms where we were sleeping

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOtGxAdnva

i didn’t want to know

that gail and pops

would be in the same bed

but i hated myself for caring

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx79rfrRTVh

at least i had a room to myself

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRd8GOjfCuH

there was no wifi at uncle seth’s house

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGFwyt84Yps

and no reception

so there was no way for me to talk to pandora

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIKmsJx4d0

gail tried to tell me it’s better that way

“the internet connects us with people far away

“but it separates us from people who are right in front of us.”

i didn’t quite see her point

i wanted to be separated

from the people in front of me

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrYoOmoStR4

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYlfeRaN5C

uncle seth woke me up at 5 in the morning

“come fishing with me”

he whispered

“it’ll be fun.”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4L1NW7Vel

“i’m a vegan”

i whispered back

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVDFVejTRGB

he scoffed

“no, really. you’ll love it.”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtIjXtIh9VB

he took me out to a bridge

over a lake

that was so quiet

i could hear my own heartbeat

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUFCfxrPcL

he showed me how to prepare a fishing rod

and we waited

lines in the water

for something to happen

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrlTH5kEwSM

uncle seth took a lunchbox out of his satchel

“hungry?”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY1frsUb2y

i nodded.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1GbVqthCah

he handed me a bun

he must have prepared?

before?

5 in the morning?

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j7KHkXyMO

i looked inside

it was ham

and cheese

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXUgEijf0Q

would i rather kill a pig?

or force a cow to lactate for me?

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSOumy1E9F

why was life always like that?

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYeN22NL68b

“ham and cheese?” i muttered, quietly.

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqJb9JeBaAB

“oh, yeah, boys don’t like pink food

“i’m sorry.”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0apO8x1z5

i looked in his eyes for a sign of humour

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEc1siv5Ox

but he was being

serious

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXMT17rurX

“but, jim, you’ve got to believe me

“ham is a very manly food

“it’s meat, you know”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmaFWMh0HS9

“i know”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡterJYXIzSU

i ate the whole thing

two of them actually

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGedBDhe3Zb

at least it’s food

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLy9RL58Jj

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4rweFCkoV

after we didn’t catch anything fishing

uncle seth took me back to the cabin

gail and pops were having breakfast

gail insulted me for not catching anything

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDMsTnrkKH

“we’re going hunting now”

uncle seth told them, excitedly

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqH6XtMvOV

“i thought we were done”

303Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVGppSvuWP

“no, jim

“i’ve got a whole day planned for us”
